    Angie is on the cover of the July issue of Vanity Fair, here is an excerpt from vanityfair.com:

    Angelina Jolie Uncensored!

    In the July issue of Vanity Fair, out next week, Angelina Jolie shares her innermost feelings about life, love, marriage, and her career with writer Rich Cohen. The full story will be available on VF.com on Monday, but in the meantime here is an exclusive preview of her frank remarks about birth, babies, nannies, and more. (Click the image to enlarge.)

    Angelina Jolie on being pregnant:
    “I love it. It makes me feel like a woman. It makes me feel that all the things about my body are suddenly there for a reason. It makes you feel round and supple, and to have a little life inside you is amazing. Also, I’m fortunate. I think some women have a different experience depend-ing on their partner. I think that affects it. I happen to be with somebody who finds pregnancy very sexy. So that makes me feel very sexy.”

    Angelina Jolie on her international family:
    “When I was growing up I wanted to adopt, because I was aware there were kids that didn’t have parents. It’s not a humanitarian thing, because I don’t see it as a sacrifice. It’s a gift. We’re all lucky to have each other. I look at Shiloh—because, obviously, physically, she is the one that looks like Brad and I when we were little—and say, ‘If these were our brothers and sisters, how much would we have known by the time we were six that it took into our 30s and 40s to figure out?’ I suppose I’m giving them the childhood I always wished I had.”

    Angelina Jolie on Shiloh’s birth:
    “We were in this little hospital in Africa when Shi was born. I don’t think there was anybody else in the hospital. It was just a little cottage, the three of us. It ended up being the greatest thing…. I had a C-section and I found it fascinating. I didn’t find it a sacrifice and I didn’t find it a painful experience. I found it a fascinating miracle of what a body can do.”

    Angelina Jolie on nannies:
    “We don’t ever have anybody spend the night. We may have to adjust that when the next one comes. But we do have ladies that work with us, and they’re also from different cultures and back-grounds. One lady’s a Vietnamese teacher—wonderful. One is of Congolese descent from Bel-gium. Another is from the States and is really creative and does art programs.”

    Angelina Jolie on artists as parents:
    “Artists raise their kids differently,” she said. “We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It’s what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.”



    LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Brad Pitt’s manager denied a television report on Friday that Oscar winner Angelina Jolie, who has publicly acknowledged she was expecting twins with the actor, had given birth to them in France this week.

    “It’s not true. It’s a rumor,” Pitt’s Los Angeles-based talent manager, Cynthia Pett-Dante, told Reuters in a statement issued by her office. She declined further comment.

    However, “Entertainment Tonight” said it stood by its report earlier in the day that Jolie had given birth to twin daughters in France, attributing the story to an unidentified person close to the actress.

    “The source says she was inside the delivery room, tells ‘ET’ yes, the babies were born, and yes, mother and daughters are fine,” the syndicated program said in its broadcast.

    The story was disputed almost from the start by various other celebrity news outlets, with People magazine quoting an unnamed representative for Jolie on its Web site as saying: “Angelina has not given birth. She is fine, enjoying her home and her family in France.”

    Meanwhile, another celebrity publication, Britain’s NOW magazine, reported the latest additions to the Jolie-Pitt clan had already been named Isla Marcheline and Amelie Jane.

    There was no immediate comment from Jolie’s Los Angeles-based manager.

    The only maternity clinic in the southern French city of Aix-en-Provence, the region where Jolie and Pitt were believed to be staying, said it had no information. Town hall officials there said they were aware of the media reports but did not know if they were true.

    Just two weeks ago Jolie, 32, publicly acknowledged she was pregnant with twins during an interview at the Cannes film festival, where she was promoting the animated film “Kung Fu Panda” and the latest Clint Eastwood drama, “The Exchange.”

    In an interview with Vanity Fair magazine due to hit newsstands next week and excerpted on its Web site on Friday, Jolie said Pitt found her to be very appealing when pregnant.

    “I’m fortunate,” she told the magazine. “I think some women have a different experience depending on their partner. … I happen to be with somebody who finds pregnancy very sexy. So that makes me feel very sexy.”

    In Touch magazine reported this week that Jolie had been ordered to bed for the remainder of her pregnancy and was due to give birth via a Caesarean section around mid-July.

    Jolie and Pitt, 44, whose romance became public after they co-starred in the 2005 film “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” already have one biological daughter together, Shiloh, who was delivered by Caesarean section a year ago in the southern African nation of Namibia.

    The Hollywood couple also are the parents of three adopted children — daughter Zahara, 3, from Ethiopia, son Pax, 4, from Vietnam and son Maddox, 6, from Cambodia.

    Jolie, who turns 33 next week, won an Academy Award as best supporting actress for her role in the 1999 film “Girl, Interrupted.”

    “ET” reports Angelina Jolie has given birth to twins, “People” says she hasn’t

    LOS ANGELES, California (AP) — “Entertainment Tonight” is reporting that Angelina Jolie has given birth to twins in France — but People magazine says that’s not true.

    The television show reported the news on its Web site, citing a source close to Jolie that it did not name.

    However, a Jolie representive told People that the actress has not given birth.

    “Angelina has not given birth. She is fine, enjoying her home and her family in France,” the representative told People, according to the magazine’s Web site.

    The twins would be the fifth and sixth children for the couple known as Brangelina. Their other children are 6-year-old Maddox, 4-year-old Pax, 3-year-old Zahara and 2-year-old Shiloh.

    The pair recently moved into the Miraval Estate villa in the French hamlet of Correns, in the Provence region, according to the mayor and the inn’s owner.

    CANNES - A glowing Angelina Jolie again showed off her baby bump to the press and revealed that the memory of Jolie’s own late mother inspired her newest performance.

    She and Clint Eastwood were in Cannes to promote “Changeling,” a drama set in 1920s Los Angeles and based on a true story involving a disappearing boy, a serial killer and a corrupt LAPD. It opens in New York this November.

    Looking lovely in a black pant suit and high heels, Jolie said that being a modern woman who speaks her mind made it hard to embody a woman from the Twenties - until Jolie thought of her own mother.

    “I lost my mother a few months before the film and to me [this character is] very much like my mother,” said Jolie at a press conference right after the film’s world premiere. Her mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand, died in January of 2007.

    “My mother was very passive in many ways and very, very sweet but when it came to her children she was a lion. Christine reminded me of my mom and it was a way to revisit my mother and spend time with her. So it was very nice and - in that way - very healing and interesting for me.”

    In the film, Jolie is politely anguished as Collins, a single working mother whose young son goes missing. Months later, when the police bring her a boy that she immediately says is not her son, Collins finds herself bullied into taking in the boy and later incarcerated in a psychiatric hospital by a police force that doesn’t want any bad press for having made a mistake.

    Jolie’s character quietly takes control of her fate in a world where women only recently earned the right to vote. She uses the media to get her story out, works with a preacher who campaigns against police corruption (John Malcovich) and stays focused on one simple question: what happened to her son?

    Jolie hesitated before following her wrenching work in “A Mighty Heart” (in which she played a woman whose husband was kidnapped and beheaded) with another emotional drama.

    “When I first read it, I couldn’t put it down and then I couldn’t stop thinking about it,” said the 32 year old partner of Brad Pitt. “But I didn’t necessarily want to do it. I didn’t want to experience what that felt like for months. When Clint was doing it, I knew that he would help me through it and that it wouldn’t be too painful.”

    When Clint Eastwood was asked if rumors he would play Dirty Harry one more time were true, he said, “No, that rumor is incorrect.” Jumped in Jolie, “I am,” prompting laughter and Eastwood’s wry response, “Dirty Harriet?”

    May 22, 2008

    Angelina Jolie’s latest role in a movie directed by Clint Eastwood and presented at Cannes Film Festival, turns out to be one of her most personal as she recognizes the figure of his dead mother in it, People Magazine reported.

    “I lost my mother a few months before filming,” the actress said at a press conference in Cannes.

    The movie is about a mother’s search for her missing child, based on a true 1928 incident in Los Angeles that eventually helped alter the California judicial system.

    “My character reminded me of my mother, and it was a kind of way to revisit my mom after passing and spend time with her,” said Jolie, whose mother, Marcheline Bertrand, lost a battle with ovarian cancer in January 2007. Bertrand was 56.

    “My mother was very passive in many ways and very, very sweet - but when it came to her children, she was a lion,” the star explained.

    Putting on her humanitarian hat, Jolie spoke of a bureaucratic legal system that hasn’t necessarily changed, despite the passing of the years since the period when her new movie takes place.

    “It is symbolic of many things happening today,” Jolie, a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Refugee Agency, added.

    Festivalgoers call the craze “Cannes-gelina.”

    Angelina Jolie has been the belle of the Cannes International Film Festival, enchanting the crowds as she promotes two new films while displaying a prodigious belly of twins.

    First came “Kung Fu Panda’s” premiere last week. Then there was Tuesday’s “Changeling,” a Clint Eastwood-directed drama opening Nov. 7 about a mother in 1928 Los Angeles whose child disappears, but the boy returned to her is not her son.

    She says she’s responding to the crush of attention with calm: “It has been lovely. I did my first day, then got to get home for dinner and got to hang out and play Barbies and things” with Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 1.

    The key, she says, is to enjoy the festival’s circus-like atmosphere instead of fighting it.

    “It has been really nice. With a film like ‘Kung Fu Panda,’ it’s so easy and fun. Even doing the red carpet - people can tend to get very serious about that, with competition - but we got to go up with a (costumed) panda,” she says with a laugh. “It all remained fun and in the spirit of kids’ movies.”

    Another important part of being a festival star: comfortable shoes. She recommends a low heel with a Nike sole.

    Jolie says the attention has not been overwhelming.

    “It’s not such hard work. I’m sitting and talking a lot, and people are being very nice to me. If I was feeling too pregnant, everybody said I didn’t have to come. So I was feeling all right,” she says. “The photography and all that can be something that is not fun to live with, (but) when you come here and you’re proud of something then it’s a positive thing.”

    Jolie doesn’t want to announce the gender of her twins, and she says she and partner Brad Pitt haven’t decided where she’ll give birth.

    “Because we have twins, we have to get to know a doctor wherever we’re based, just in case they come early,” she says.

    The secrecy is partly about avoiding the paparazzi, the actress adds. “It’s not as much focused on the whole celebrity side of it. It’s about wanting the experience of birth, and also spending time with the other children. It just should be a very beautiful time, for any woman.”

    Before daughter Shiloh was born, the family set up in a remote town in Namibia. “We spent our days with the children on safari, or in the dunes, or painting, or just having a beautiful time.”

    While in Cannes, she also is doing interviews for the action-thriller “Wanted” (June 27), in which she plays a Dodge Viper-driving, gun-blazing assassin.

    She points out that she’s not doing anything all that extraordinary - it’s what many women do up until they give birth. “I just have to do my job.”

    “Changeling,” Clint Eastwood’s latest film starring Angelina Jolie, got a warm round of applause Tuesday at its press screening in Cannes where it is competing for the top prize.

    The Changeling, to get its official premiere later in the day, tells the story of single mother Christine Collins (Jolie) in 1920s California whose nine-year-old son Walter goes missing.

    Months later police turn up with a boy they say is Walter, whom Christine takes home, but she knows in her heart he is not Walter.

    Helped by community activist Gustav Briegleb (John Malkovich), she battles against all the odds to prove it and in doing so brings down an entire police department.

    Eastwood is back in Cannes vying for the Palme d’Or in spite of mixed acclaim here for his 2003 entry “Mystic River.”

    Angelina Jolie made a fashion statement of mythic proportions Tuesdday when she swept down the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival in a billowing caftan-style goddess gown.

    The heavily pregnant Jolie played against type: She didn’t show cleavage and didn’t show leg - yet she still managed to steal the limelight on what is one of the most competitive red carpets in the world.

    Instead of showing off her curves, the 32-year-old showed how (in the words of designer Reem Acra, who custom-created last night’s dress) “covering up can be more chic.”

    Ironically, Angelina debuted her demure look at a 61-year-old film fest best known for exposing the assets of starlets desperate to attain sexpot status.

    In 1953, a little-known actress named Brigitte Bardot became a household name after she stunned onlookers by posing in a bikini for the paparazzi.

    A year later, a nubile Simone Silva took it a step further, whipping off the top of her bikini during a press conference to the shock of the press and co-star Robert Mitchum, who sat - slack-jawed - by her side.

    Ever since, actresses in search of the spotlight (industry-speak: Canne’d Heat) have let it all hang out in the South of France this time each year.

    But this year, Angelina - along with trend-setting peers including Gwyneth Paltrow, Calista Flockhart and Salma Hayek - appear to be using the exposure they’re getting in Cannes to turn to a clean fashion page.

    Blame Britney or Lindsay, but A-list celebrities are feeling the need to distance themselves from the attention-grabbing antics of Hollywood’s younger pack. Experts say we can expect to see Hollywood’s established actresses wearing more modest, less flashy red-carpet gowns.

    “These are actresses who’ve already arrived,” says celebrity stylist Mary Alice Stephenson, noting the cool grownup brand of glamour also exhibited by Natalie Portman (in a ruffled purple frock) and Paltrow (who wore a simple, toga-style Lanvin dress) in Cannes this week. “These women have attention 2-4/7. They don’t need anymore.”

    Jolie, Stephenson says, looked “fashion appropriate, elegant and above all comfortable” yesterday in her Hellenic-style caftan. “There’s an ease to the ‘goddess’ look that is very feminine and also very much a sexy party style,” says Stephenson, who as usual had a practical observation: “It’s really hot and sticky in Cannes, so it makes sense that stars are wearing loose-fitting dresses. They want to stay cool.” Especially, in Angelina’s case, when they’re dressing for three.

    (CBS) Don’t buy any wedding gifts for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie just yet.

    Online reports that the couple got married in New Orleans over the weekend are untrue, sources tell both People and Us Magazine.

    Although the couple were in New Orleans two weeks ago, they have recently been in Austin where Pitt is filming the movie “Tree Of Life” with Sean Penn.

    Over the weekend Star magazine reported that the couple exchanged wedding vows at the French Quarter Wedding Chapel.

    “We talked to someone who was there,” Star editor-in-chief Candace Trunzo told the Daily News.

    Confusion surrounds the marital status of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie after the actor’s representative failed to rule out rumours the couple had married on Saturday in New Orleans, Louisiana.

    The ‘Fight Club’ star - who famously insisted he’d never again exchange nuptials until everyone in the US had the right to - reportedly headed into a New Orleans church with Jolie to immortalise their relationship in marriage.

    Pitt’s publicist stoked speculation when she admitted she had “no idea” if the reports were true.

    However, according to a People.com source, there was “no wedding” - the couple travelled to New Orleans earlier this month so Pitt could check the progress of his ‘Make It Right’ project to rebuild the city’s hurricane-ravaged Lower Ninth Ward.

    Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt got married this weekend in a top secret ceremony, according to reports.

    US magazines have put out conflicting reports on whether the two gorgeous actors have finally tied the knot.

    Rumours got out through US magazines and websites that Brad and Ange’ were wed in New Orleans on Saturday.

    The couple’s representative fuelled speculation by admitting she had no idea if the stories were true!

    However a source told People Magazine that the reports were ‘complete and total bulls**t.’

    We’ll wait to see a ring on Jolie’s finger then! The couple already have four children and it’s thought Angelina is currently pregnant with twins.

    Welcome to awards-show season, Angelina Jolie.

    Jolie earned her pass to the red carpet with a Spirit Award nomination Tuesday for her turn in the real-life tale A Mighty Heart.

    Fellow Oscar winners Cate Blanchett, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Marisa Tomei likewise pulled in nominations from the independent-film-honoring show. The unveiling of the nods represented one of the first rounds in Hollywood’s annual trophy-distribution tournament.

    I’m Not There, the trippy Bob Dylan biopic featuring several stars riffing on the music legend, led all Spirit Award contenders with four nominations, including ones for Blanchett, costar Marcus Carl Franklin and director Todd Haynes. The film was assured of going home with at least one mantelpiece when it was outright named the first recipient of the Robert Altman Award, honoring the ensemble comprised of a film’s director, cast and casting director.

    One of five films nominated for Best Feature, I’m Not There will vie for top honors against: the Jolie-led A Mighty Heart, about journalist Mariane Pearl’s search for her Wall Street Journal reporter husband who was abducted and beheaded by terrorists; The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, the true story of the paralyzed magazine editor who dictated a book with his unparalyzed left eye; Juno, the quirky comedy about a teenage pregnancy; and Paranoid Park, Gus Van Sant’s skateboard murder drama.

    Blanchett is nominated in the Best Supporting Female category, while her counterpart Franklin is in the Best Supporting Male race. Hoffman is in the Best Male Lead field for the sibling comedy-drama The Savages. Like Blanchett, Tomei is a Best Supporting Female nom, up for the crime thriller Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead.

    Jolie, considered an Oscar contender, is the biggest name in the Best Female Lead race. Her competition: Sienna Miller, up for Interview; Ellen Page, the young star of Juno; Parker Posey, for Broken English; and Tang Wei, for Ang Lee’s NC-17-rated Lust, Caution.

    In the Best Male Lead category, Hoffman will square off against Don Cheadle, for jawing on the radio in Talk to Me; Frank Langella, for authoring a writer in Starting Out in the Evening; Tony Leung, for Lust, Caution; and Pedro Castaneda, for the Spanish-language farmworker drama August Evening. None are currently considered locks for Oscar nominations.

    In addition to Franklin, the Best Supporting Male field shapes up like this: Talk to Me’s Chiwetel Ejiofor; Great World of Sound’s Kene Holliday; The Namesake’s Irrfan Khan; and Rescue Dawn’s Steve Zahn. In something of a surprise, Holliday’s old Matlock boss, Andy Griffith, who drew some of the best reviews of his long career for Waitress, was stiffed a tip.

    Griffith wasn’t the only Waitress staffer shut out—star Keri Russell likewise drew a blank. Its late writer-director, Adrienne Shelly, was nominated as a screenwriter but not as a director, and her film, which has grossed an indie-best $19.1 million, was passed over for Best Feature.

    The Best Supporting Female category is dotted with some of the biggest names. In addition to Blanchett and Tomei, Jennifer Jason Leigh is up for the comedy Margot at the Wedding. Also in contention: Rocket Science’s Anna Kendrick and Four Sheets to the Wind’s Tamara Podemski.

    The director’s race pits Haynes against Tamara Jenkins (The Savages), Jason Reitman (Juno), Julian Schnabel (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly) and Gus Van Sant (Paranoid Park). Van Sant was a favorite at Cannes; Schnabel is an early Oscar favorite.

    Actress turned multihyphenate Julie Delpy scored a nod for Best First Feature for her, well, first feature, 2 Days in Paris.

    For the purposes of the Spirit Awards, an independent film is a film that costs less than $20 million to produce. To put it another way: Transformers wasn’t snubbed; it wasn’t eligible.

    The 2008 Spirit Awards are set to be presented in Santa Monica, California, on Feb. 23, the day before the 80th Annual Academy Awards.



    Angelina Jolie is number one at all chapters.

    This time, Angelina Jolie has been voted one of the world’s ‘yummiest mummies’ in a poll held be British newspaper ‘The Sun.’ Jolie has three adopted children and one biological daughter with actor Brad Pitt.

    On March 10, 2002, Jolie adopted her first child, seven-month-old Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt. A six-month-old girl from Ethiopia, Zahara was adopted on July 6, 2005. On May 27, 2006, Jolie gave birth to a daughter, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, in Swakopmund, Namibia by a scheduled caesarean section. Shiloh, according to a long-standing translation from the Bible, has come to mean “the peaceful one”.

    Number two in the poll gets the new mother Myleene Klass was also made the list. Katie Homes, who has a daughter with Tom Cruise, landed in third place. Holmes was followed by the ‘Spice Girls’ Emma Bunton, who recently gave birth to a baby boy.

    Britney Spears came in fifth place with another Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham, following in sixth place.

    Hi everyone!

    I’m looking for a co-web as I have nearly to zero time on the net lately due to personal health issues.

    The requirements are knowing basic html and how to work with coppermine/wordpress. (I can teach wordpress)

    If you’re interested, e-mail me at ajolieorg@gmail.com.



    It was Angelina Jolie the mom, the actress and the artist who made the decision to take on the role of Grendel’s mother in the new feature film “Beowulf.”

    “I’ve got kids and I thought ‘that’s so great. That’s so bizarre. I am going to be this crazy reptilian person and creature.’ I was very excited. She is one of those fun characters. She’s evil. She’s temptation. She is just one of those fun characters to play,” Jolie says during an interview at the Four Seasons Hotel.

    Jolie, dressed in gray slacks and a white blouse, is seated in a charcoal-colored chair situated just below a sign that spells out “Beowulf” in huge blood-red letters. Her less-than-zero size body is turned at a slight angle, legs crossed much in the way she was seen in numerous scenes of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.”

    The movie, based on one of the oldest stories in English-language history, includes a battle between the great hero Beowulf and the creature known only as Grendel’s mother that went on for eight days. The story has been changed for the movie: Grendel’s mother is a little more temptress than warrior.

    The actress in Jolie wanted the opportunity to work in the unusual filmmaking style. Director Robert Zemeckis created the film using a motion capture computer program. The actors worked in an empty room wearing nothing but body suits covered with hundreds of yellow dots. Those dots were used to record the information needed to make the animated version of the actor’s performance.

    The role also gives the 32-year-old Jolie another diverse film credit on a resume that already includes “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider,” “Shark Tale” and “A Mighty Heart.”

    Jolie says that she was excited about the opportunity to work with Zemeckis, the man behind such films as “Back to the Future” and “The Polar Express.” In fact, she was so excited about the opportunity, Jolie was agreeable to anything that was tossed her way.

    “I was told I was going to play a lizard. Then I was brought into a room with Bob and all these pictures. He showed me this picture of a woman half painted gold and then a lizard,” Jolie says.

    Who wouldn’t want to play a role that at times is a green, slimy creature who lives in the water and at other times looks like a Victoria’s Secret model who forgot to dress for work?

    The character in the animated film is a lizard-like shape shifter who takes on a revealing human form when she tries to seduce Beowulf. That Grendel’s mother has such a perfect form shows the power of computers.

    “I was three months pregnant when they filmed me,” Jolie says. She pauses, flashes a coy smile and then adds, “Actually, they did map my body before I got pregnant.”

    As to how her onscreen body looks, Jolie shows she knows exactly how to feed interviewers what they want to hear. With a slight smile, she almost purrs, “I liked my tail.”

    She’s OK with the image now. There were moments when she worked on the film that she had a few doubts.

    “I got a little shy,” Jolie says. “I didn’t expect it to feel as real.”

    She felt exposed at times because of the digital animation process and having to wear the body suit.

    But one would think she would be used to the exposure. Jolie’s public life with Brad Pitt is documented by armies of paparazzi and journalists. She brushes off a question about being such a public figure with “I try not to think about my public life and focus on my private life and that is just the best way to live.”

    Jolie worked only a few days on “Beowulf,” but that doesn’t mean the shoot was not demanding.

    She had to wear a harness to pretend to swim and fly. Zemeckis even had the actress learn Old English to use when talking with Grendel.

    Despite the fact that what is seen on screen is just a computer-generated version of Jolie’s movements, she praised Zemeckis for treating the movie like a piece of art rather than just another business project.

    “I think the nice thing for all of us these days is that we all do films and it has become such a business. Or so much of it, there are these projects where people just want to rush through it. You lose touch with the artistic process and the fun of it,” Jolie says. “And Bob is a real artist. And he loves it so much. And he is so enthusiastic and so original. And so you remember that you are a creative person and you have fun with everybody else.

    “I needed that as an artist.”

    There are many words that come to mind when describing Angelina Jolie, but “shy” isn’t one of them.

    And yet that’s how she says she felt when watching her digitally animated character in “Beowulf.”

    She’s half lizard, half woman and mostly naked sometimes.

    Jolie says when she saw how much her character looked like her, she says she got “shy” and called home to warn Brad Pitt about what he’d be seeing. “Beowulf” opens Friday.

    Angelina Jolie has dismissed rumors that she and beau Brad Pitt will soon be on diaper duty again.

    Jolie laughed off rumors that she and Brad were expecting their second biological child, but is not ruling out adding to the family sometime in the future.

    “No, there’s always a rumor but not at this moment. But at some point we will (have another child),” she told MTV News.

    The couple are already parents to four kids - Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh.

    Jolie adopted Maddox in March 2002 while still married to actor Billy Bob Thornton, however when the two split she got custody. She later revealed that Pitt had been the one to encourage her to adopt Zahara in July 2005.

    After Pitt and she got together, the actor adopted both the children, and Jolie requested their names be officially changed to ‘Jolie-Pitt’ in January 2006.

    Next came the couple’s first biological child Shiloh, who was born in Namibia in May 2006. Jolie then added a second son to the family by adopting Pax Thien in March this year.
